Theresa Cooney Guides Michigan Society of Eye Physicians and Surgeons

Founded 50 years ago, the Michigan Society of Eye Physicians and Surgeons (MiSEPS) represents Michigan ophthalmologists and their patients. Its priorities include legislative advocacy,interaction with third-party payers about reimbursement and coverage issues, public education about eye care, continuing medical education for ophthalmologists and their staffs, and public service to the underserved.

As president, Theresa Cooney, M.D., hopes to increase free eye screening programs for Michigan citizens who do not have access to care. She also plans to “bring in more ophthalmologists-in-training.”

“I will do my best to acquaint trainees with the practice issues we face in Michigan and around the country,” she adds.
